== Help with semi-protection for Memphis, TN ==

Hello Tiptoety, I hope you are doing alright. On August 15 you lifted the semi-protection from the ] article after some months of protection. The article had been vandalized by the same person, adding the same un-notable information about the official songs of Memphis over and over again. Well, a few days after the semi-protection was removed the same exact thing started again. The article was vandalized in this manner nine times since September 1 already, a very persistent person it seems. The vandalism comes from different IPs and there were warnings left on the IP talk page. Furthermore, the topic had been discussed in great length on the Memphis talk page, where the clear outcome was that the material lacks notability and that it should not be added to the article. What can I say, I have tried to have the semi-protection re-instated indefinitely at ] but the request was declined. It is already getting annoying that someone has to remove that information almost every day now. What can we do or how long do we have to wait to re-apply for semi-protection? I hope that you might have a good idea from your experience as administrator. Thank you very much! ]&nbsp;\&nbsp;<sup>]</sup> 17:46, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

== ] ==

Hi Tiptoety. Yesterday, I looked at the new user contribs and noticed the edits of the above user and ]. I obviously didn't see any relationship at the time, but when I added the subst:welcome template to Redhearts11 talk page, and right after that, BlueCaper said it was his/her sister. Instead of immediately looking at BlueCaper's account creation log, I responded first, but I realized the close connection. I then went to to see if there is a sock puppet involved — this could be a mistake, but I don't think we should ignore it, especially since BlueCaper was blocked before for creating nonsense pages. ] (''another'' new account) then went to the same places that both BlueCaper and Redhearts11 edited (like ). On JP4Jackpot's user page, it says that the three have "relations". I'm not sure at all if any of these are "positive" relations, but nontheless, it looks to me as though we should contact a checkuser. ] (]) 18:08, 13 September 2008 (UTC)
:I would recommend filing at ], seeing as I am not really sure if those accounts are being used abusively. Remember it is alright to have more than one account, as long as it is used correctly. ] <sup>]</sup> 16:18, 14 September 2008 (UTC)

== More ] ==

On 5 Sept you kindly semi-protected ] for 9 months. The magic seems to have worn off already, however, and I can't see why myself — something to do with the intervening page moves on 6 Sept perhaps? Would you mind taking another look? Regards, ] (]) 18:24, 13 September 2008 (UTC)
:Nope, the protection is still there. ] <sup>]</sup> 16:19, 14 September 2008 (UTC)
::It wasn't when I wrote that, but it is now as ] then added commenting "''add move protection, since there have been problems with that''", which seems to confirm my suspicion. Regards, ] (]) 18:41, 14 September 2008 (UTC).

== ] and threats of outing ==

Hi Tiptoety. Could you please give a piece of advice as someone not previously involved in the matter?

Some time ago {{User|Miyokan}}, with whom we had certain disagreements, decided to to reveal my true identity and advertise it in WP. This resulted
. The deleted threads are at the talk page of ] to whom I complained, because he knows this user well. Unfortunately, this warning apparently had no effect, and this user continued making similar threats , and . He is talking about "Georgians" because my real family name sounds as a typical ''misspelled'' Georgian name. Hence they want to paint me as an anti-Russian Georgian troll, which I am not.

Please also see ]. Note that Miyokan and each of his sock puppets accumulated a lot of blocks. "Berkunt" was so good, even checkuser
] could not identify that was him. So, I can only wonder who else might be him.

Now he continues to be distractive and . And he is not alone. Some of his friends make uncivil . So, what do you think? Just looking at you recent comments and actions, I think you are very fair administrator. Of course if you need more information, I can provide it. Thank you.] (]) 18:31, 13 September 2008 (UTC)
:Just in case, last uncivil comment does not mention Piotrus. Pieter is another user, apparently from West Europe.] (]) 18:39, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

This is worse and worse with every minute. I asked one of the users to remove an inflammatory userbox that tells "polonium is a good substitute of sugar", but he inflames anti-national felings and attacks other users (fortunately not me) with phrases like "''Russophobes will not be allowed to remove Russian POV from this or any other article.''" . This is really offensive, especially if other users are Russians like me.] (]) 21:47, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

:Hi Tiptoety. With regards to "outing" Biophys, I have done no such thing, I specifically asked Biophys permission , he didn't give it, so I didn't say anything.

:Even after he replied allowing me to show my alleged proof (he said, "What proof?"), I STILL didn't take up his challenge and further asked "so you consent to me showing my proof?". Alex Bakharev said it is appropriate if there is a convincing reason to do so. Of course I would not mention it for no reason, nor was I even the user that even brought it up there. Other users believed Biophys to be hiding a conflict of interest - I was not even the one who brought up Biophys' "Georgianness", nor even the second. ] did , followed by ] . "He is talking about "Georgians" because my real family name sounds as a typical misspelled Georgian name." No, it is not this, but I won't reveal it.

:With regards to some ], vilification stuff that Biophys has added, with regards to my previous account, I announced to the whole community when I stopped using ] and started using ] . When I walked away from ] to ], I fully admitted I was the same user as soon as asked, I never tried to deny that I was the same user.--] (]) 07:58, 14 September 2008 (UTC)
::Okay, this is clearly too big for just one measly administrator such as myself to deal with, as such a has been started at ANI and hopefully that yields a positive outcome. ] <sup>]</sup> 16:32, 14 September 2008 (UTC)

== It's Dodgechris ==

Hi, ], me, the real life person of ] has just created an account, this is him (see on the signiature for name), i'm just saying i'm sorry, you were persuing the Dodgechris incident, weren't you? I'm just like to say sorry to you, and please can you forgive me and please don't block this account, all i want is to edit constructively, i love ], but if you chose to block me, i'll be sad, but i won't use socks, i'll stay away, maybe i'll just add 1 unblock template, but that's all, if you let me keep this account, i'll edit constructively, and never, ever vandalise, i'll also be civil, avoid spamming and stick with the rules, and i'll say sorry properly to the others i harrassed , can you please send them my apologies. ] 20:45, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

== I'm looking for a few good editors.... ==

...who are willing to help hack through the labyrinth we call Misplaced Pages Policy. I've started up a project called ] to help address the increasingly problematic ] on the 'pedia. Ideally, this project will work to condense, merge, and in some cases delete the jillions of policies and guidelines into their basic components, so that both new and experienced users only have a few pages to read through if they have a question or concern instead of many. I'm hoping that once this project is through, we'll be able to reduce the number of policy and guideline pages by half while still keeping all the nuances and interpretations clearly available for users to understand. I'm contacting you about this because either you have previously expressed an interest in this, and/or I know I can count on you as a reliable editor who knows their way around the project. I'm not advertising this in the open just yet, as I'm hoping we can get a good foundation started with the few editors I'm contacting now so that when we do make this more public, we've already got a head start to show people what this project can do. So, if you've got the time and are willing, please stop by ] and jump right in. If you have any questions, post to the project's ] or ] - I'll see it quickly either way. As always, thanks for your help. ] <sup>(]/]/])</sup> 20:14, 14 September 2008 (UTC)

== Map for Wales Page ==

Hi there Tiptoety, I just came across your page and noticed that you seem to be keen to help. If you have the time, would you mind looking at this request please? We are looking to improve the map on the ] article. The style we have in mind is something like the ] or ] articles. Sadly, the creator of those maps has a notice on his talk page saying 'No more map requests'. So, I was wondering if you knew where I could go, and/or who I could ask instead. If you don't have the time, would you mind suggesting someone you think may know, please. Many thanks and ({{lang-cy|diolch yn fawr}}), ] (]) 21:58, 14 September 2008 (UTC)

:The reverts were made in an attempt by me to prevent vandalism. I use huggle to patrol page changes and in this case I saw no edit summaries, removal of sourced information, addition of information followed with a "?" as if the veracity was in dispute even by the editor. I issued warnings concerning the edit summary, as well as, the removal of sourced information. All reversals were made in a good faith effort to stop vandalism. --<small><span style="background-color: darkblue; color: white">]</span></small>|<small>]</small> 00:50, 15 September 2008 (UTC)

== A follow-up ==

It seems that I am now very popular among Russian users for the lack of "patriotism". A ] you know about just came back from your block and , which is a bad faith accusation at least. He was soon supported by others. I believe by {{User|LokiiT}} is certainly over the top. Although I had absolutely no disputes with Igny, the latter user (LokiiT) was repeatedly coming to my talk page with various accustions he shows in his diffs. I am not sure if apply, but something should be done I think. Thank you for consideration.] (]) 01:29, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
:P.S. I never make references to blogs. I have provided a link to "La Russophobe" web site (LokiiT is talking about) only from a talk page, because this site provides English translation of an original text published in a different and reliable source.] (]) 01:38, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
::Something should be done alright, just look at my post and tell me there isn't a problem here. And I'm not a "Russian user" so don't accuse me of being some patriot. You've constantly gotten in the way of and often prevented me from improving articles by continually reverting me in different articles and tag teaming with your buddies. It seems anything that isn't anti-Russian doesn't belong in Misplaced Pages according to you. Enough is enough. ] (]) 01:53, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
:::I have never reverted you, or even engaged in any form of edit warring with you. I am simply a uninvolved administrator attempting to resolve a long standing dispute between a large group of users. Honestly, I could care less if you are Russian, American, African, or Chinese. What I care about is the fact that you are ] users, that others are edit warring, and that Misplaced Pages is being ] because of it. I have never interacted with Biophys prior to this incident, and do not care what his ] is in this case, all I care about is insuring that he and everyone else abides by the rules. ] <sup>]</sup> 02:01, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
::::I was talking to Biophys, sorry for that misunderstanding. I responded to your comment on my own talk page. ] (]) 02:02, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
:::::Oh, well in that case disregard what I said above. Cheers, ] <sup>]</sup> 02:03, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
::::::Sorry for causing this trouble. Next time I will ask another administrator. I asked you only because you were a blocking admin of Igny. At least you can see their attitude. Thanks again, ] (]) 02:07, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
:::::::Biophys, my comment above (in this thread) was directed at LokiiT, not you (though seeing as his comment was meant for you, mine is now really directed at no one). Please understand that I am happy to look into this issue, and have left LokiiT a short waring. ] <sup>]</sup> 02:09, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
:::::::::Yes, understood. Thank you.] (]) 02:14, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
== Interpretation of the rules ==

Regarding the notice you put on my page, can you explain something to me. The rule says: ''Any uninvolved administrator may, on his or her own discretion, impose sanctions on any editor working in the area of conflict (defined as articles which relate to Eastern Europe, broadly interpreted) '''if, despite being warned''', that editor '''repeatedly''' or seriously fails to adhere to the purpose of Misplaced Pages''

Where was I repeatedly warned? Where did I repeatedly make personal attacks? I even removed the part that you interpreted as a "personal attack" at my own will prior to the notice. ] (]) 02:41, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
:It is a warning, that's all, a warning. It is just like the one I left you earlier, except I have linked a relevant RfAr case, meaning that if you continue you will be repeatedly or seriously failing to adhere to the purpose of Misplaced Pages, and there for subject to sanctions, understand? ] <sup>]</sup> 02:47, 15 September 2008 (UTC)

Hmm, now I have a question too. I have just been warned as well. I feel like I was reprimanded for doing nothing wrong. I have never been uncivil, have I? I understand that I participated in an edit war in an article on a controversial subject, and I was already punished for that by a block. Was that the reason for the "restriction" or "sanction"? If so, why Biophys and others were not warned as well for participating in the same edit wars? (] (]) 03:04, 15 September 2008 (UTC))
:. ] <sup>]</sup> 03:06, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
:: So? I still do not understand. I was uncivil or disruptive? Or that edit constituted a personal attack in your opinion? Please explain. (] (]) 03:14, 15 September 2008 (UTC))
:::Saying that he "''whitewash Georgia's images''" is a bit of a ]. Like I said to LokiiT on his talk page, calling people names does nothing but turn Misplaced Pages into a ]. All that message is is a warning, so that you do not end up being sanctioned in the future, that's all. ] <sup>]</sup> 03:20, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
::::Well, in my opinion it was just criticism of the work of a fellow editor (actually a whole group of them). I can live with a warning, it did not seem fair, but ok. (] (]) 03:31, 15 September 2008 (UTC))

== Please ==

Could you please close , because of the 3rd policy paragraph: "III. ? Many Thanks--] (]) 12:00, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
:But he has, please see ]. ] <sup>]</sup> 14:05, 15 September 2008 (UTC)

No, at least, not concerning my account(of course, because his "evidencies" against me has been proved fakes, I don't like to keep in my talk page an accusation proved as fake and where "the accuser hasn't requested CheckUser for ten days". I see two option only: 1) do a CU that can prove that I'm not a sockpuppet 2) close and erase the accusation notice because "the accuser hasn't requested CheckUser for ten days"

== Endless saga ==

It seems that ] did not learn much. Now he conducts edit warring by removing other users comment at an article ''talk page''.

I could advise Igny myself, but he probably would not listen.] (]) 22:23, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
:Obviously, to his talk page. But that is understandable. He wanted to tell something, but that was deleted without asking. That is how flame wars are started.] (]) 22:31, 15 September 2008 (UTC)

A funny performance takes place . This article is about ] known as "''A leader of ] movement, a group of several hundreds MMOG players and bloggers, said to aim at planetary domination"''. The article is vigorously defended by ] (also a "Duck"). So far, eight users voted to "keep": {{User|R l}}, {{User|Volodymir k}}, {{User|69.142.115.39}}, {{User|Asolver}}, {{User|Anton Rau}}, {{User|Vsevolod makeev}}, and {{User|24.82.155.49}}. As you can see, all of them are SPAs. It seems this Galkovsky has a lot of "Ducklings".] (]) 20:30, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

As for {{User|DonaldDuck}} I have left him unblocked seeing as there is really no way to link the other accounts to him, I mean just because the !voted like him does not mean they are him.

I would like to thank you for unblocking me. I intend to follow the agreement and not edit information about Sarah Palin until after the election. While I cannot think of an example at this time, it is possible that I will have something to add in an article in which she has a remote connection; in which case, I will avoid discussing her.

== A probable sock ==

I strongly suspect that two Russian users ] and ] are the same. I asked Offliner, and he replied that , although he is obviously not a newcomer. Although they carefully avoid any common articles, they edit in the same ] style. They talk and behave very similarly, and they edit in the same general areas. ''I checked their time schedule'' during the July-September period and found that they do not edit in the same time. Say, O. did not edit during Sept. 2-11, but K. edited during Sept 6-9, and so on. Krawndawg often worked together with ], almost as a team (Moreschi should know him). Should anything be done about it?] (]) 23:18, 20 September 2008 (UTC)
:That is far too little of evidence for me to block on, but if you have a concern and legitimately feel that they are in fact the same user, compile some evidence and file a report at ]. ] <sup>]</sup> 23:52, 20 September 2008 (UTC)
::And what if checkuser defines them as the same user?] (]) 00:10, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
:::Then they would be blocked. ] <sup>]</sup> 01:29, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
::::The reason I've pretty much stopped contributing to wikipedia is because of Biophys constant attacks, attempts to get me blocked, and stocking/revert warring with me all over the place, in almost every single article I ever contributed to. This isn't the first time he's accused me of sockpuppeting. In fact I've almost come to expect it, which is why I still check his edit history once in a while. I am not the same user as Offliner, I don't know who Offliner is, and I don't plan on getting involved in wikipedia editing again (aside from maybe a few updates here and there) because of the sort of harassment Biophys has put me through since I first began editing. Kind of takes the fun out of it. I mean, what's the point in spending countless hours contributing to this site for free in my few spare hours of the day if it only brings frustration, conflict and continuous paranoia/accusations of bad faith? I can think of a million things I'd rather do, up to and including eating glass. ] (]) 02:56, 22 September 2008 (UTC)
